How
to know for sure
Someone has said that the only thing you can know for sure
is DEATH and TAXES. The Word of God states that we can know for sure that we are saved and going to heaven when we die.
Consider four things we can know for sure.
I.
We can know for sure about
sin
Romans 3:23 says:
"All have sinned and come short of the glory of God"
Isaiah 53:6 says:
"All we like sheep have gone astray we have turned everyone
unto his own way"
We are
sinners by birth and by choice. It is our nature to sin against God. No matter what your color, class, or creed
is, you have sinned against God. (Romans 3:10)
II. We can know for sure about the Sovereign
The Bible teaches
there is a sovereign God. He is forever holy and He cannot look upon sin. Because He is holy, He must judge sin.
Romans 6:23 says:
"For the wages of sin is death"
Death means eternal separation from the Holy God "IN HELL."
III. We can know for sure about the Savior
God sent
His Son, the Lord Jesus, to pay for our sins on the cross. Jesus was God in Flesh (I Timothy 3:16). He lived a perfect life and died in our place. The Lord Jesus satisfied God's holiness on the cross.
The Lord Jesus rose again from the dead on the third day.
(I Corinthians 15:1-3)
There is no other
way to be saved except through Jesus Christ our Lord.
(Acts 4:12)
(Acts 4:12)
IV.
We can know for sure about
Salvation
Salvation is the FREE GIFT of God for all who will receive it.
Ephesians
2:8-9 says:
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves:
it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast."
If you, by faith, will receive
the Lord Jesus, HE WILL FORGIVE
YOU of all your sins and He will SAVE YOUR SOUL TODAY.
Just say this
prayer and mean it from your heart:
Dear Lord Jesus,
I know that I
am a sinner,
I know that I am lost,
I want to be saved,
Come into my heart,
Save my soul,
Help me to live
for you,
In Jesus name,
Amen.
On the authority of God, the Word of God says
He will save you.
Romans 10:13 says:
"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved"
Make a change
in your life and have eternal life with Christ!
May God Richly Bless You,
Pastor
